The terrain Wei Xi had chosen was a clearing, not too far from their hideout, it was a serene winter oasis, with the gentle trickle of a frozen stream providing a peaceful backdrop to the quiet hush of the snow-covered surroundings. The air was crisp and carried the scent of pine and the subtle fragrance of winter blooms.
Sunlight filtered through the frosted canopy above, casting a soft, light on the snow-covered ground.
It was open enough to ensure the beast could take cover and perform sneak attacks, the dry grass was sufficiently short to allow them to spot incoming third parties from far away.
The trees were close enough for Yan Jin to launch long-distance attacks, and there was a little pond in the eventuality they had to escape. He had covered every aspect he could think of in his analysis, of the battle.
"Ready?" Yan Jin asked, listening to the heartbeat of the youngster for clues. He could tell Wei Xi was going through a massive adrenaline release, since both his hands were bright red from the rapid blood flow. Despite the cold air, of the early winter, he was sweating from fear, no excitation.
Another smile of satisfaction crept onto Yan Jin's face, the kid had talent and really could be thought.
After a nod from Wei Xi, Yan Jin placed the scaled egg at the center of the battlefield allowing its scent to spread out and permeate the clearing. "Sorry, but we all have to earn our share of resources in this family this time you are the bait," he said as he walked to his assigned battle station.
Yan Jin decided to take cover on a Chastain tree outside the clearing, which would give him clear access to battle as a ranged unit, but also let him control the flow of the battle as the manipulator he is.
Wei Xi was designated as the main damage dealer, and it would probably be the same in the upcoming months. As a close-quarter bloodline warrior, he could not stray too far from the battlefield as he would need to intervene first. So, he decided to lie within the withered grass and allow the falling snow to complete his disguise.
The daylight began to vanish in the horizon giving space to the dark of the night, many little beast made their way into the clearing but none daring enough to approach the celestial aura released by the egg.
Both hunters had not moved an inch since they settled into their camouflage position, Wei Xi was covered in snow, and his body was close to hypothermia, but he could sense the greedy eyes of the purified lord beasts on the clearing. Although none of them took direct actions they observed each from their side and probed for the right opportunity.
The clearing was dead silent, with no bird sound, no cricket or cicadas, just pure killing intent under the moonlight.
Their fight, became sluggish as the poison took hold. They continued to clash their massive bodies with a force that sent shockwaves through the ground, but their mzwdsadovements grew slower.
Blood stained the snow-covered ground. The bear's fur was dyed with its own blood, and the Sabretooth's sleek coat was riddle by deep gashes. The two predators were now panting heavily as they circled each other in exhaustion.
Amidst the debris of the battle, Wei Xi emerged like a phantom, his presence as ghastly as the blood-soaked snow. His eyes were focused and his expression was deadly serious as he channeled his aura to its maximum potential.
The blood energy circulated around him, fierce and wild, as the wyvern roared in his soul. The sound of the wyvern reverberated through the clearing, a deep cry that shook the air and made the two beasts flinch.
With his bone spear in hand, Wei Xi began to charge a powerful attack, his body glowing emerald with the concentrated energy. The spear hummed with the tip of the weapon glowing ominously as it absorbed his aura.
The beasts, sensing the lethal threat, recovered just enough to realize the danger they were in. They exchanged a quick, instinctual glance and, despite their weakened state, lunged towards Wei Xi with the intent to stop him before it was too late.

But they had fallen into a meticulously crafted trap, and Yan Jin was ready.
As the beasts charged, Yan Jin unleashed a torrent of poison darts, with the help of his soul energy . The small projectiles flew through the air like a swarm of angry bees. The beasts howled in pain and fury as the poison coursed through their veins, their movements becoming even more erratic and uncoordinated.
It was in this moment of vulnerability that Wei Xi, now fully charged and ready, made his move.
With a fierce battle cry, he thrust his spear forward, the energy he had gathered releasing in a blinding flash. The power of his aura, shot forward like a bolt of lightning, aimed straight at the two beasts. The Snow Mountain Bear and the Sabretooth Tiger, unable to defend themselves in their weakened state, were struck by the devastating force.
The impact was explosive. The spear tore through the bear's thick hide and the tiger's muscle with equal ease, the concentrated energy erupting from within them. The clearing was filled with the sounds of their dying roars, a desperate cry that echoed through the trees before fading into silence.
